The Story

1958 Les Paul Standard Made 2 Measure Checkerboard Top Murphy Lab Heavy Aged

This is a one of a kind checkerboard finish on top of a 1958 Les Paul Reissue and furthermore given a Murphy Lab Heavy Aged treatment! The white finish has a very nice cream tint to it that works well with the aging, and we love the use of silver reflector knobs and black pickup rings! This one has a chunky profile to the mahogany neck like all '58s, and comes in at a very comfortable 8 lbs!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags and Paperwork
